Choose the right official study materials

For Form N-400 filed before October 20, 2025, USCIS uses the 2008 civics test: 100 study questions, up to 10 asked orally, and 6 correct to pass. For filings on or after October 20, 2025, USCIS uses the 2025 test: 128 study questions, up to 20 asked orally, and 12 correct to pass. Special rules or exceptions may apply; confirm with USCIS.

Official overview and test-version guidance · USCIS study materials

Our 80 civics drills cover selected shared topics using original wording, not the complete official question lists or an official test simulation. Study the full USCIS list for your version. Current officeholders and local answers can change; use current USCIS guidance and official government sources.

Practice a Skill

Open a short lesson, try the example, then choose a matching practice area below.

Answer civics questions aloud

Listen for how many examples the question requests. Say a concise answer before checking the model. If a question asks for one example, practice giving one clear example.

Try: Name one federal branch.

Check the example

Legislative, executive, or judicial.

Practice civics speaking →

Connect a role to an institution

Make a three-column chart: institution, job, and example. Distinguish making laws from carrying them out and interpreting them.

Try: Which branch interprets laws?

Check the example

The judicial branch.

Practice civics speaking →

Use a history timeline

Connect an event, date, and meaning. Explain the meaning rather than memorizing a date by itself.

Try: What did the Declaration of Independence announce?

Check the example

The colonies were separating from Great Britain.

Practice civics speaking →

Understand question words

Who asks for a person; where asks for a place; when asks for a time; why asks for a reason. First identify the type of answer needed.

Try: What kind of answer does “When was it written?” request?

Check the example

A time or date.

Practice vocabulary →

Read in meaningful groups

Read a short sentence in groups of words, then read it smoothly again. Check unfamiliar words with a teacher or partner. This tool does not assess pronunciation.

Try: Read: The people / elect / representatives.

Check the example

Read the full sentence aloud: The people elect representatives.

Practice english reading →

Write from dictation

Listen to the whole sentence. Repeat it quietly, write it, then compare word by word. Ask a partner to read when browser audio is unavailable.

Try: Listen to a sentence, then name two things to check.

Check the example

Missing or added words and spelling; also review capitals and punctuation.

Practice english writing →

Build useful vocabulary

Explain a word in simple English, use it in a sentence, then recall it tomorrow. Your home language can help you understand.

Try: Explain the word “repeat.”

Check the example

Say or do something again. Example: Please repeat the question.

Practice vocabulary →

Ask for clarification

If you do not understand, practice a respectful request to repeat or explain. Do not memorize an invented personal answer.

Try: How could you ask to hear a question again?

Check the example

Could you please repeat the question?

Practice interview language →

Check changing answers

Officeholders and local answers may change. Use current official sources and your applicable USCIS list. Record a source and date in your private study materials.

Try: Should an old practice card decide the name of a current official?

Check the example

No. Verify with a current official government source.

Practice civics speaking →

Space your review

Review a difficult item today, tomorrow, and again later in the week. Mix older items with new ones and explain answers aloud.

Try: What should you do after revealing an answer you missed?

Check the example

Explain it, cover it, recall it again, and schedule another review.

Practice vocabulary →

Study My Notes

Paste a short public civics note or write a few vocabulary meanings. Use this to study facts, not to complete an application. Do not enter an A-number, address, case details, or other private information.

Uncover your note and compare your recall yourself. This workspace does not verify facts, score answers, or generate questions automatically.

Notes stay only in this page until you refresh or leave. Download before leaving. Nothing here is saved to an account or sent to the site owner.

Make a Study Plan

This is a study routine, not a readiness score or a promise of passing. For civics, use the official list for the version selected in practice. Review missed items and check current official answers.

Speak civics answers aloud before revealing examples. Self-review is not an official score. Reading aloud is not recorded or evaluated. Writing feedback compares words with one model sentence; it does not assess USCIS passing standards. No microphone access is requested. Practice and feedback limitations. Browser audio may use your device or browser vendor’s speech service; use a partner if you prefer. Privacy and audio details.

Where do I take the citizenship test?

The official naturalization test is administered by USCIS during your scheduled interview. It is not a separately booked GED-style exam at a library, school, or tutoring center. USCIS sends an interview notice naming the office, date, and time. Use that notice for your appointment location.

USCIS field-office locator: enter your ZIP code to find the office serving your Florida address. Offices require appointments; no walk-ins.
Official interview and testing overview: learn what happens at the scheduled interview.
USCIS exceptions and accommodations: review official information about English exemptions, special consideration, and disability accommodations.

The class providers below offer preparation, not official citizenship testing. This page provides educational practice, not immigration legal advice or an eligibility determination. For questions about your application, consult USCIS or a qualified immigration attorney or DOJ-accredited representative. Adult-learning and citizenship notices.
